Brake Pads & Disc's

[kev dood]

thats what confused me really!

The DBA's people go for, are they always the Golds, how about the grooved ones??

Plus do you have to tell the insurance co?

Black Diamonds looks cool - how are you finding them performance wise? Also do they have a website? How much did you pay?

Also, when fitting the rears, don't you also have to replace a few other parts? My car is in a Lexus today to get new rear discs (due to corrosion) and they have listed a few other parts required to change!

Here are the link for getting the Black Diamond disc

think you get discount too if you are Gold member...

performance is pretty good, i used it with green stuffs pads, and is very good, not sure if Black diamond have a web site thus, i will check...

as for fitting it to the IS, i dont think it need any other bits, think is just a stright swap...

Yes you do. It's for them to decide if it affects the premium or not.

here is their website I think.

ummm, interesting then to note, maybe for future replacement. Unfortunately my front will need replacing first, especially as I am now getting new rears - is it ok to have performance ones on the front only?

Rodders...when you say warping...what kind of effects do you get??  I have EBC's and so far, apart from being a little noisey they are very good!

you can feel a vibration through the steering as you start to brake - feels a little like wheel balancing wobble but only when you lightly brake at speed

Have this also. Discs changed at 40K, 50K and now again at 57K due to heavy vibration with braking at speed. Good job it's under warranty.

Still not happy though!
